    Here are a few pics of what I have done recently. Unfortunately my old camera is temperamental so I don’t have complete photos of the jobs and I am too cheap to buy a new one. :lol1

    Just a City police car. Did a 6 hour repair on the door.

    Jeep Grand Cherokee. Needed to replace the rad support (hit low). The front crossmember/rebar was ok,
    but it needs to be removed in order to slide the rad support out. What a stupid idea… :wak

    You can see the bottom of the rad support bent in. It is square tube so it can’t safely be pulled back since it is kinked.

    All ready for the new parts to be welded in. I really love the U-Pol copper rich weld through primer, best product I’ve ever used.

    Compass with about 15mm of sway in the rad support and rails. We have 2 of the Car-O Liner “Speed” pulling systems which I have never used before. Very fast setup, obviously has limited functionality. It did manage to do the job though.

    Here you can see the little tower for the Car-O Liner…”I think I can, I think I can…” :whistle:

    Me too…but they were the only Dealer hiring at the time. On the bright side I am learning lots of little tricks to work on them, like snapping every little piece of junk clip and supping for new ones :silly:

    well they want you to restore it to factory specs. they wouldnt want the repair to last longer than the rest of the car
